Installing Zabbix 4 Agent on Fedora 29 Linux

scottalanmiller

By default, Fedora 29 still uses Zabbix 3.0 for its monitoring agent. But Zabbix has been on the 4.0 series for a while. So we often will want to install the latest. And here is how...

First, add the current Zabbix repo. For Fedora, that means using the RHEL 7 designated repo.

dnf install https://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/4.0/rhel/7/x86_64/zabbix-release-4.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm

And now to install the agent itself.

dnf install zabbix-agent

Ta da.

I'll wait for when Fedora 30 is released.
